Like all the other reviewers said, this book provided a great ending for Victor Bergman, however, it also provided an interesting beginning for new things to come for Moonbase Alpha. Really enjoyed reading this fast pace book, which made you feel that you want to read more about these characters. Also, just like the other Space 1999 book published by Powys, the Forsaken, even if you do not know about the Space 1999 TV series, this book is also an excellent stand along novel. You will enjoy reading it.

Fans of Space: 1999 will recall the major changes that occurred between season one and season two. Some of new things, as well as the absent things in season two were never explained. The most conspicuous change was the absence of Alpha's Science Officer, Victor Bergman. This novel explains the rest of the story and provides us with some clues to his fate.

Ball writes a great story which at times makes you feel like you are watching the show again.

Best read in one pass, Brian Ball delivers a timeless, thought provoking and highly descriptive adventure to link elements of Year one to Year Two as the Alphan's encounter an alien race who will stop at nothing to survive. The story races along to a heartbreaking conclusion, but also with hope for the future.

Powys Media continues to deliver with this latest novel.
Highly recomended

If you loved the original series, you will enjoy this book. It covers the loss of Victor Bergman and maintains the mythic intent of the original first season.
